Description

The Santa Fe Trail is the homeland of the Pueblo Indians, builders of America's original high-rises. The mud-and-straw (or adobe) brick homes of the Taos Pueblo have been continuously inhabited for some 1,000 years. It has been designated a World Heritage Site by the United Nations. In 1610, the Spanish established their colonial capital nearby, a town dedicated to the holy faith of St. Francis: Santa Fe. The end of the fabled trail of pioneer days, Santa Fe is today the oldest state capital city in our nation. And if its earth-tone structures hark back to the Pueblo originals, well, that's by design.
